HISTORY

In 1969, the Newberry/Owen family founded the Bear Owen Paving Co. as a local residential paving contractor, with one truck and two employees. Years of dedicated workmanship allowed the company to steadily, yet conservatively, grow. In 2003, Thomas Owen, Jr. became the owner and transformed the company. It is now a commercial and CCR-registered federal and state concrete and asphalt paving contractor with 18 employees, more than 26 vehicles and major pieces of heavy equipment, a 7,000-square-foot office building and maintenance facility, 24/7 emergency services, snow plowing and demolition.

“We have firmly solidified our position as the region’s premier paving contractor. We have five construction crews and have become eastern Pennsylvania’s largest residential paving contractor,” said Thomas.

In addition to Bear Owen Paving Co., Owen founded Bear Owen Trucking in 2008.

Bear Owen Paving Co. donates thousands of dollars annually to many causes in the local and surrounding communities, particularly youth sporting events, civic organizations and annual spring clean-up efforts.
